A Casey County man and a teenager were indicted on rape charges Monday by a Casey County grand jury.
Brandon C. McGlone, 21, and Robin Foy Scott II, 17, both of 4056 Jonathan Fork Road, were each named in indictments charging them with first-degree rape.
According to the indictments, the two, either acting alone or in complicity with each other, engaged in sexual intercourse with an 18-year-old female on March 22, while she was incapable of consent because she was physically helpless.

Ben Eldridge, 52, of Somerset, told Deputy Freeman Luttrell that he swerved to miss a squirrel in the road and lost control. The truck, which was eastbound, dropped off the shoulder. Eldridge brought it back on, but the bed broke loose and caused the vehicle to overturn, landing on its side. Eldridge was not injured in the 3:45 p.m. accident. Luttrell said several people in the area helped clean up the spill, including a neighbor who lent the use of his tractor.
